#26: CAO Brazilia and Rocky Patel Edge

Received as advertised !! On time and in great condition .

Excellent. Great buy

Med to bold, different size,but good for a tasty sample

I live in a rural town that has a very small post office. One of the postal workers gave my wife a hard time a few months back for not giving a PO box number on a package. When my wife explained that anything sent UPS always asks for a street number and that deliveries are sometimes left on our porch, while other times they are left at the post office. This postal worker for some reason took offense and berated my wife in a condensending way, embarassing her in front of other customers. My wife uncharacteristically made a complaint and the postal worker's boss called to apologize. I tell that story to tell you this one. When my order for the Rocky Patel and COA's did not arrive as expected,. I tracked the order and found that it had been delivered to the post office and returned to sender, most likely as a passive aggressive response to my wife's complaint. We've used this post office for thirty three years and have never had a problem up to now. We live a block away from the post office and when UPS packages are dropped off there, the postal workers, who are all friendly but that one, puts the package aside to give to us when we come in to pick up the mail. I contacted Cigar International to ask them to resend my order. The representative I spoke with was very nice and empathetic about the delay, which was not at all the fault of Cigar International. She informed me that she would resend my order and asked if there was any other way she could assist me. To my surprise the order came the very next day. The cigars I ordered were securly packaged and in great condition. I have just recently began ordering cigar samplers from different companies, however am finding that I prefer to deal with Cigar International.

This is a good cigar selection at a great price.

great smoke loved the deal

The Brazilias were excellent as usual, however I wasn't that impressed with the Rocky Patel

Good

The RP Edge is very good, decent draw and smoke, and goes very well with coffee, while the Brazilia was one that I was very much looking forward to trying out. It has quickly become one of my favs, and it is all-around a great smoke.

Fast delivery

Delivery as promised, on time and good cigars

Great cigar combo!

These are two great maduros

Always great cigars for the humidor. Never had a bad stick.

These are by far one of the best matches CI has put together. Both quality sticks 90+ rated Maduro awesomeness. Both these sticks get better with age.

I love both of these cigars, however, one of the Rocky Oatel edges was very dry.

Love ‘em both!

Smooth and full flavored. No complaints here.

Awesome sampler and definitely reccomend!! Only downfall was having to pull some large stems out of the Brazilias

Excellent cigars with a soothing touch of class !

My everyday cigars. Enjoying them immensely!

Love all of them!

Nice

Came in a timely manner,fresh so I have no complaints.

I've bought this package before, and probably will again. Had 1 "Edge" that was a tough draw, but that was the first one ever, and the CAO Brazilias were almost as enjoyable as some of my favorite Partagas Black sticks. I heartily recommend this package if you like full-bodied cigars...

Great flavor, made well. Always consistency with these two.

The Cao's were awesome as usual, but the Rocky Patels were horrible. Everyone canoed and got real bitter half way down.

Excellent cigars never any complaints about these two cigars ,,,you cannot go wrong with the CAO's or the Rocky Patels. I highly recommend these to anyone who enjoys a good strong smoke

Happy with my order as always

Love it!!!

Enjoyed the flavor and value

Caught these on sale; very good smoke. These are some of my favorite cigars, full body, consistent burn and taste.

These are two of my very favorites. Nothing but pure pleasure.

Cigars arrived on time and were fresh. I am looking forward to visiting the new store in Frisch, Tx sometime next month.

And at a reasonable price. Individual boxes cost much more per cigar.

Tasty

Great cigars. I love both.

Really good smoke

Love the CAO Brazilia, the RP’s are decent. Good taste but some uneven burn issues. I’d order the sampler again.

Love it

Pleasantly surprised by both of these.

Bought this sampler several times Great quality and burn

Solid smoke for the price.

I especially like the CAP Brasilia, I will keep some of these in my humidor. The Patels were good I prefer his mellowed blends.

A full bodied smoke and a slow burn for the price!

Both of these sticks are terrific! The CAO is an old favorite and the RP was a surprisingly smooth draw with great flavor all the way to the end!

Cigars came nicely packaged and very fresh. Both cigars are great smokes and I will be purchasing more.

Very good cigars. My personal favorites. Delivered fresh and fast.

Beat of both worlds

They were ok for the price

these are my choice when I have guests , and we head to the patio with our cold libations and a smile on our faces and begin to celebrate whatever

Everything was fine. The cigars were delivered in the timeframe you gave me. The quality was just fine. The price was comparable. Only qualm is that the delivery is so long. Cigar delivery is the only time it sucks to be in CA.

The CAO Gol! Is my favorite smoke and almost lived up to normal. Too dry. The Edge is a little dull for my taste. Still, a good package for the price.

Enjoyed this combo!!!

Brazilia is my go-to smoke, always well constructed and consistently great taste. The Edge maduro is a worthy companion. I love this combo.

Fresh Delivery very satisfied.

Just order it. You won’t regret it. Both of these are fantastic cigars. I’ve always been a big fan of CAO but these Rocky Patel cigars were just as good.

Both cigars are awesome and recommended

RP the edge was 6 stars. I had them before so I knew that. A friend suggested this CAO. Good but I liked the RP much better. Will buy just the RP next time. My other all time favorite is Arturo Fuentes curlyhead delux. That give you an idea of my taste. Everyone is different so it’s worth a try and these 4 each combos give you an opportunity to try things out.

Good quality and a great price....

Awesome choice

Good quality cigars - always a consistent burn and good flavor.

It was a great deal for the money

Both are great cigars and are perfect to share with my brother while golfing!

The CAO Brazillia always delivers. They are delicious anytime.good flavor, good burn, and a nice nicotine punch. The Rocky Patel has normal Patel issues. They are very good when you get one with good construction, but there is a lot of vatiation within a box and even within a 5 pack. Most of them burn uneven and need lots of touch ups or burn hot and get sour. But when you pluck one out of the humidor that is rolled just right they are wonderful.

Wonderful blend of smokes and great for everyday smoke. Enjoyed the combination

Yummy

Brazilias were always my favorites but the Rocky Patel are excellent

Two of my all time favorites

CAO Brazil always good. Rocky Patel was ok

Excellent

Good cigars. I have had a little trouble with the CAO. The caps come of a few of them and they started to come apart. This was in the last 3rd so it wasnt that big of a deal....

Two great cigars for a great price. The Brazilia is one of my new go to cigars

The bundle containing Rocky's Edge and CAO Brazilia is about as good as it gets in my mind. These are two of my favorite cigars. The Brazilia was one of the first cigars I truly fell in love with. It's a dirty, sassy cigar. So sassy. The Edge may be my favorite cigar by Rocky and overall - and I'm a huge fan of his. I remember moments smoking these fondly. They're like coming in from a winter's night and sitting by the fire with a cup of cocoa. They are moment makers for my money. Like, "Hey, this place isn't so bad after all. I should remember that more."

CAO rather hash Rocky Patel. Very goog

Has a good medium to full flavor start but a bitter finish. A good first 50% smoke.

CAO are very good for the price, one of my favorites.

Pleasant surprise!!

Enjoyed the Rocky Patel Edge last Sunday on the Golf course. Made up for the long hectic work week.

I always buy my cigars through CI...fast delivery and a ton of choices for quality cigars!

I have always had an excellent experience ordering from you guys. The cigars have always been fresh and I get them relatively quickly. I will continue to order from CI!

Great sticks at great price-- delivered to my door well in time for the Super Bowl festivities. Fantastic! Thanks again CI.

Very smooth with great flavor!

Great cigars, great price

Great flavor

My favorite gentleman’s Deuce, can’t go wrong with CAO Brazilia and Rocky’s The Edge.

Two wonderful combination maduos that complement each other. Edge = heavy coffee and light cedar taste. Brazilia =light coffee and heavy cedar taste.

As always, Cigars International delivers top notch cigars at great prices.

If you like a maduro, this is the deuce for you.

A great combo of awesome full bodied cigars at a steal for the price.

Two fantastic full bodied smokes, in great sizes, at a great price. Highly recommended !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Top-notch.

RP Decade AND CAO Brazilia Gol - 2 winners!

CI takes great care of the customer. I don’t use anyone else.

Smooth excellent cigar

They were a wedding gift and everyone really enjoyed them.. Both cigars were great.

Enjoyed both, two of my favorite brands

It is hard to beat this combo. Two of my favorites.

Can't go wrong with this combo!

I liked this pack a lot. Love the CAOBrazilia and the RP edge are a good combo

Good go to smoke

Both of these are fantastic. The CAO Brasilia is a great but that Rocky Patel is out of this world. Rocketed me into the 4th dimension. One of the best cigars I've ever had the fortune to smoke.

Great sampler. Then when I like it..the prices are almost double next time. Would like consistency

Nice for and everyday smoke but not real consistent construction

Amazing combo! The Brazilia has a smooth draw and wonderful taste. I smoked right down to the nub! And you can never go wrong with the Patel Edge!

Both are very solid cigars. I liked the Rocky Patel Edge slightly better. Cigar has a nice full flavor and a smoke that lasts a really long time.

good flavor

Brazilia is the best! RPs are a nice add-on.

Awesome buy!

Cao Brazilia and Rocky Patel Edge - 2 great cigars - one low price. These guys are money in the bank for quality. Both burn and taste great! Can't beat the deal.

He especially like the Rocky Patels

Great smokes!

Smooth cigar...every time!

Both cigars in this bundle are great. The cao has me hooked. I will me a must have for me.... CAO has been making its way into my humidor for a while now and will continue. The edge also was a great smoke.

Both are great smokes

Both cigars are EXCELLENT!! Great taste.

I actually purchased for the CAO and ended up enjoying the Edge even more! Great deal.

2 of my most favorite cigars. If you like maduros, you'll love these.. Amazing price too. I hope they keep this combo indefinitely. I order 4 at a time. And like they say, make sure you're sitting down for the Edge. So freakin' good.

There were pretty good, I enjoyed them, but the people around me didn't like the smell of those particular ones..

Two of my favorite cigars. You can't go wrong with this sampler if you love maduros.

NOT WHAT I THOUGHT THEY BE TASTE WISE

Nothing better than getting my favorite brand, at super low prices, and having them shipped to my door. Absolutely awesome!

The CAO Brazilia was fine the second RP Edge did not stay lit, I believe it had a bad wrapper.

Great combo pack. The CAO Brazilia is a full flavor cigar while the RP Edge is med to full. Good contrast and value. Both had good even burn and no hot tongue.

The Edge cigars included with this pairing are wonderful. Always consistent, long-smoking, and never harsh. The CAO Brazilia I've always found inconsistencies within any pack or box. Some of them are great, some are poor. Would be like if Forrest Gump smoked them he say "Life is like a box of CAO Brazilia, you never know what your gonna' get. The CAO's smoke to quick I believe, especially compared to the Edge. I'm lucky to get about 1 hour and 15 minutes on the CAO, where I always get 2 hours plus on the Edge.

Excellent buy...enjoyed these cigars.

This is the second time I've ordered this pair. Both are enjoyable smokes and well worth the price for the combo. I'll be ordering again!

Good smoke

Good bold sticks at a value price

The two choices I got in this order were great ones and I am enjoying them both.

Always in great shape from your store. Never any problems with any of my orders so I can't complain. Thanks for great products and will continue to purchase my favorite cigars here.......

Great smokes

They where a nice flavor

Cao is pretty good too

The CAOs well made, easy draw, excellent flavor. Rocky Patel's Edge has a very good blend of flavors and are very well made.

Great little combo for the money

hints of chocolate and cedar wonderful

Having enjoyed both cigars previously - I totally enjoyed the group of very tasty cigars that you offered. Thanks!

Both good smokes. I particularly like the Brazilia, a good strong stick that burns evenly.

Smoking them on my recent golf vacation made me feel like I was hanging with Tony Montana.

Two of my favorite sticks, for one great price!

Both cigars are among my favorites.

excellent smokes

I found this particular sampler to be very smooth and great tasting

Both are great cigars. They have a deep and rich smoke that is full of flavor. Great draw and time on each smoke. If you love a full flavored cigar this would be a great purchase for you

Awesome cigars

The CAO brazilia, and the Rocky Patel Edged are amazing and we'll worth the scratch

Both of these cigars are nice variations to my regular smoke.

Two great cigars

Nice and smooth combination

Two blends that are a solid 'go to' from a sea of offerings you may be unfamiliar with.

Great smoke, Nice flavor excellent burning Medium + body

My friends and have always liked both of these cigars.

They are my every day smoke !!!

CAO Brazil never disappoints !Rocky Patel Edge has good flavor and even burn

The cigars look and smell good, looking forward to being able to smoke some of them when I get a chance.

great cigars for a great price cant beat that! thats why i keep coming back!

Great Smokes some of my favorites choices.

Both were excellent cigars, but my preference was the Edge. Just an enjoyable smoke from start to finish. I tried to see how long I could get the ash to hold on. Almost half of the smoke. I would recommend them to anyone.

The CAO Brazilia were good smokes; the RP edge were smooth and enjoyable.

Good cigars awesome price

The Edge was great, although it would be still better if it were a tad stronger. CAO Brazilia was OK, but these ones were the smallest size of them I have ever tried, and the larger ring sizes sure do taste better. Service and delivery speed as impeccable as ever.

Not blown away. The Patel wrappers fell apart

Excellent! Great price for great cigars. Beware if you buy this one. Plan on getting a box of each in the future. Thanks again CI for the great sampler at a fantastic price. Transaction and shipping were excellent also.

Both awesome smokes, I have really been enjoying both of these cigars. I am relatively new to smoking (2 years) and I find that I like a fuller-bodied cigar and these pair well with good bourbon. I enjoy using CI also.

Great cigars at a great price.

Great tasting cigars. The CAO Brazilia is my new favorite. The Edge was a very good smoke also.

The CAO Gol is my favorite cigar. It burns clean and long. The flavor is complex and full. Rocky Patel Edge is just OK. The flavor is good, but it is so poorly rolled. It always breaks or burns uneven.

Purchased the above delivery fast, cigar quality fresh, no problems would HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Awesome deal, gonna get more!

Great cigars!

Both very good cigars. The CAO does burn more consistently though.

Both the CAO Brazilia and Rocky Patel Edge are full bodied and both have an excellent flavor profile. If you like smooth and full bodied smoke, you can't go wrong with these 2. Plenty of thick smoke and well contructed. KB

Big fan of the Brazilia since it was released. The Rocky Patel Edge is likewise a very good cigar. I love the taste and construction of both of these cigars. My wife made a comment to me that I seem to be smoking more cigars lately. I guess that is what happens when you find good cigars at good prices.

Great pair of nice smoke smokes

This combination is a winner. Both products burn beautifully and taste great!

All cigars came ready to smoke not dry like some other guys. Great price fast shipping thanks

Best place to buy cigars from! Fast shipment!

For the price paid, this pack was well worth it. Arrived on time and well-protected.

very good

A Great combination, two of my favorite smokes in one sampler.

A solid standard meets M.O.T.R decent cigar.

CAO Go is one of my go tos. The Patel Edge was a good match and the two pair up nicely in a combo well priced just for those who love the stronger smoke.

Great deal very enjoyable.

Perfectly fine transaction. I even called to make a change to the order (add) and it shipped on time. Thanks

Love this place

The CAO Brazilla was a surprise. It was smooth from start to finish and seemed similar to the Rocky Patel. The Rocky Patel Edge was Murduro wrapper. Not so good. I didn't read the offer close enough when I order. My fault, but jut didn't care for the wrapper. The order came to me in good time and good condition.

My Favorite Combination.

cigars were fine

Ordered this combo 5 times already and never had any complaints. Nice full flavour cigars that are always stocked in my humidors.

I recommend both of these cigars!! Great value and wonderful smoke!

You can't beat the quality of these sticks and the price makes it an unbeatable deal!

Great choice, smokes well with great flavor.

These two cigars are great! I only smoke maduro's and these two aim to please. Full flavor, good burn, and a great value.

These two are a couple of favorites. The CAO is always a great smoke. Plenty of flavor . The Edge is always excellent.

This was a no brainer for me. My two favorite smokes!!! Awesome Deal!

If you crave bold, full flavored cigars then this is the deal for you! Great construction, easy draw and a perfect balance of taste makes this combination unbeatable. I'm going to buy it again!

Shipment was delivered on scheduled date in perfect condition. Cigars are fantastic

Best deal in town. That's why I order them all the time

2 excellent cigars

fresh cigars fast. couldn’t be happier!

My husband loves these cigars. Your price for this package deal is great!

These are two of my favorite basic cigars and CI has a great price on this sampler. Very happy.

The last order that I received had quite a few " runners ". I only smoked about half of those particular cigars because they burned down one side.

Great full bodied smoke.

The CAO is good, especially for the price, but the star of this sampler is the Rocky Patel Edge. Dark and rich with just a hint of sweet. This cigar has perfect draw, and burns beautifully. I always try to save one for Friday night because it is the perfect way to end the week.

Delicious every day smokes for a great price!
